It's a wonderful book. <br /><br />Have you ever held a large giveaway for people who purchased a copy of your book? The buyers could email you a copy of their receipt and all those who purchase a copy of the book between a certain time periond would be entered to win a nice prize? <br /><br />I want to do something like that while I am on my tour with <i>The Little Shepherd Boy</i> in October, November, and December. I've slowly begun buying little items to put together one or two gift baskets.<br /><br />I think it would be a good idea to put together a press release now that the tour is over with some blurbs from the reviews you received. Title it something like, "Lingering Spirit by Marilyn Meredith Receives High Praise". Make a brief mention of your virtual book tour, add a book blurb, some short review blurbs, and be sure to mention how it broke the top 100. Also put a link to your video trailer in it.<br /><br />Let me know if you need any help with it.<br /><br />Good luck!<br /><br />CherylCherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03470069911115912344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3164137142811869136.post-21339503297153405782010-08-03T18:23:53.771-07:002010-08-03T18:23:53.771-07:00Congratulation on Lingering Spirit being in one of...Congratulation on Lingering Spirit being in one of the top 100 lists at Amazon. I suspect when the forthcoming Tempe Crabtree comes out, it will lend momentum to Lingering Spirit. People who like your writing - and who doesn't? - will read the Tempe Book and want more. Make sure Lingering Spirit is mentioned on the back cover.<br /><br />Mike OrenduffMike Orenduffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09390940407971455613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3164137142811869136.post-89503973902746559772010-08-03T08:33:01.736-07:002010-08-03T08:33:01.736-07:00Great idea!
